I uploaded a Jupyter notebook to GitHub with some screenshots that I embedded into markdown cells using the following format:
However, when trying to view the notebook on GitHub, none of the embedded images appear. Is there something I can do to mend this?
I do not want users to have to run a Python code block to display the image. They are screenshots of different steps in a "getting started" guide I made, so I want them to appear in Markdown cells.
This is just a shot in the dark, but does your relative filepath need to point to the root directory? Like this:
That's my best guess.
If the images are posted on Github, open the image in a new tab, and copy the URL like so (Put in the actual link; I just added ellipses to redact the repository name):

I am learning how to do equation numbering using ams math in local Jupyter notebook. As per the documentation, it says to make changes in _config.yml file. But I am not sure where to find it on my Mac. If it helps, I have the file jupyter_notebook_config.py in ~/.jupyter directory. But they don't look the same.
Can I kindly get some help here (example'll be appreciated), how to work with _config.yml file. thanks in advance.
The documentation you linked to is for a project called jupyter-book. If you're using that, then, as #MattDMo said, follow the example from the tutorial and add the _config.yml in the folder that contains your book.
If you're using a regular Jupyter Notebook, you can disregard that and just write the LaTeX in a Markdown cell, where it will be rendered (by MathJax rather than MyST), without any extra config.
I've written a program that generates an image via tkinter.Canvas and saves it. Now I'm updating this project to use FastAPI to let users hit my end-point and download this image.
I'm not trying to display the image on the server, just generate it in memory, save it to storage, then return that image.
Initial proof-of-concept tests work, but I cannot get this to work in Docker because no $DISPLAY is set. Unlike other questions I've seen, I'm not trying to display the image directly, just generate the image, save it, and return a file-path.
This is not a dupe of Tkinter setup on headless server. That question boils down to "how do I not run tkinter while on a server?" I still need tkinter, I just have no intention of displaying it.
I have also seen something about X11, but it seems like I'd need to know the server's environment in order to install X11, and I do not.
Is tkinter really not able to generate an image without $DISPLAY (even if I don't intend to display it)? If so, is there an alternative to tkinter I can use that can generate an image without needing a $DISPLAY? Am I totally misunderstanding a major part of how this works? It seems like I should be able to generate an image and save the bytes without needing all the things required for actual graphical rendering...
Using Pillow.Image and Pillow.ImageDraw instead of tkinter works for my scenario. (Credit goes to #acw1668)
My project only draws lines, circles, and polygons - all things that ImageDraw can do. The process of switching from one to the other was exceptionally straightforward, and Docker returns the ImageDraw/Image file with no issues!
I run simulations for various choices of parameters. For each choice I store the resulting data in a folder, like
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=10/1.dat
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=10/2.dat
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=10/3.dat
...
and
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=20/1.dat
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=20/2.dat
/home/me/Documents/MyProject/C=20/3.dat
...and so forth.
would like to write a little text file AAA.txt which contains not just the C parameter but all the others too. Then when viewing this folder which contains the data I want to hold my cursor on the little file symbol and have a little box appear. This box should show just the content of AAA.txt, so I can quickly check which set of parameters was used in this particular run.
Anyone know how to do this? I use Ubuntu 14.04
I am not aware of ways to give you a custom "tooltip". As an alternative, you could look into creating custom thumbnails of your .dat files.
See here for how to do that with nautilus; the default file browser for Ubuntu.
Alternatively, you might look into what Gloobus can do for you.
I've recently began coding for my degree and for a project I am submitting it via a pdf created in Jupyter so that my code can be seen. It all works within Jupyter but when I export to PDF the image that I have embedded in markdown doesn't load. All that loads in Microsoft edge is a small black box with a white cross in and in chrome there is a small image of mountains in two pieces. I am not sure where I'm going wrong. My image is written in like this:
<img src="files/masterbiaspic.png" />
And I don't know how to fix it.
I really don't have a wide knowledge of code so please be simple with your answers.
Kind regards and happy new year,

You appear to be using raw HTML to insert your images into your document. What you may not know is that most Markdown parsers do not look at the contents of raw HTML, they simply pass it through unaltered. However, raw HTML is not understood by the PDF file format, and in fact, when converting to PDF, there is no clean way to convert raw HTML to PDF without also parsing the HTML (which is beyond the scope of Markdown parsers). Therefore, if you want to output to PDF, you should only use pure Markdown (without any raw HTML). That way the parser can easily convert everything to a proper format for PDF output.
As it turns out, Markdown includes its own syntax for images (see the documentation for details). Try this:
By doing that, Jupyter Notebook will know about the image and should import it into the PDF properly.
It could be that the above will not resolve the problem. It depends on which method is used to convert to PDF. Some tools may take the HTML output of Markdown and convert that to PDF, which would mean you have a different problem entirely.
How can I convert a Google Docs, which contains images and tables, into a Markdown file which can be published as a post using Jekyll?
Is it possible to first export the Google Docs into a PDF and then convert the PDF to Markdown? What will happen to the images and tables in that case?
May 2018 Update
The script originally suggested in this answer appears to no longer work and has not been updated for 5 years.
An alternative solution (which is based on the old script) can be found at https://github.com/evbacher/gd2md-html
I tried it out, it works pretty well.
Previous Answer
You can use a Google Script to do the conversion for you!
This one will let you convert to .md and it will email you the converted file. I've tested it and works fine. It works with basic tables, and if you have images in the doc, it will attach them to the email.
Instructions for installing are on the same link, in the GitHub description, but I pasted it here for ease of access:
Add the script:
Open your Google Drive document (http://drive.google.com)
Tools ->
Script Manager > New
Select "Blank Project", then paste this code in
and save.
Clear the myFunction() default empty function and paste the
contents of converttomarkdown.gapps into the code editor
File -> Save
Run the script:
Tools > Script Manager
Select "ConvertToMarkdown" function.
Click Run
button (First run will require you to authorize it. Authorize and run
again)
Converted doc with images attached will be emailed to you.
Subject will be "[MARKDOWN_MAKER]...".
Good luck!
You can export as HTML. Jekyll can serve static HTML files.
Btw, "standard" markdown doesn't have tables. There are implementation that have it, but I'm afraid you'll have to convert them by hand to the right format, which will be implementation dependent. I don't know about Jekyll, maybe it's easiest to just use HTML tables within the markdown text.
You could create a new theme based on the HTML export. The export should contain the stylesheet embedded in a <style> tag within the HTML document. It's not really easy to create new themes, but doable. Or, if you just want the content and don't mind using whatever Jekyll theme you already have, then you can cut out the stylesheet part and keep the html only.
Another option would be to change how files are delimited in Excel on your computer. This guide can help you do that (http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/21456/export-or-save-excel-files-with-pipe-or-other-delimiters-instead-of-commas/)
Then every time you copy and paste from excel to a markdown file/jekyll you automatically have the pipes. All you will need to do is add some dashes to separate your topline..
Google Docs -> docx to Markdown -> md
I myself looked far and wide but I believe the best way to do this is by using Pandoc.
Works for all platforms (check their incredible website ) , what you are looking for is the following command on your cmd or PowerShell (Windows) :
pandoc input_filename.docx -s -o output.md
Pro Tip:
Pandoc comes with a little trick to store up even all of the images in your document to your custom folder and then adding the image tags in the markdown by using relative referencing to those images at the correct places. The amazing line of code is:
pandoc --extract-media ./your_custom_folder input_filename.docx -o output_filename.md
